In something of a stylistic shift for Sights Unseen, we’re presented with something a bit different from his usual style. With an ambient introduction building into an orchestral soundscape, the first few minutes of this track would make a solid piece by themselves, however 2 and a half minutes in it pounds out some beautiful synth melodies, and continues in much the same style throughout, shifting between orchestral and synth-driven movements.
Orchestral
Alexey Kotlyar – Welcome Solitude | Orchestral
I haven’t heard a whole lot of music from this artist, but the progression of this track is really quite pretty, and whilst some parts feel a bit raw, that somewhat adds to the emotion of the piece. There are parts where I feel like I can hear the weight of the piano keys, and along with the emotive strings, it makes for a touching end to the evening.
Little Jester – Walk | Chill
Following on with the relaxing vibes, Little Jester brings us a playful little chill track about Twilight that walks along beautifully, pulling us in its wake. Just the thing to follow along with during an afternoon break, or something similar.
GhostXb – All Hope is (Not) Lost | Orchestral
Comissioned by a friend for another friend, GhostXb has created a soundtrack for the fanfic series Crystal Siege. You can find the link to that in the video description.
New Reverian – Redwood Robin | Orchestral
The amazing New Reverian, talented in multiple genres delivers us a charming little orchestral track. This song has smooth, well pulled off transitions and it all gives me the feels. Definitely worthy of best flower pony.
/MLP/ Plays – >No Fun Allowed | Album | Multi-Genre
Brace yourselves everypony, because you’re about to get surprised in the most amazing ways, as we present to you the result of two years of collaborative effort from musicians of the 4chan /mlp/ board, a massive 51-tracks album of stunning quality. Featuring a wide variety of genres (even including some very unusual ones), perhaps even more variety than in the P@D or LDB albums, this heartfelt compilation of sophisticated tunes will surprise and delight as you experience its many wonders, such as the very mellow and enthralling RarityRF (#7), the emotional and surprising you-would-never-guess pony vocals from Flut (#8), the incredible vocal chops from Protocat’s remix of I’ll Fly (#11), the masterful collaboration work in To Anon Too Late (#15), one of the best and most epic remixes of Luna’s Future (#21), Feral FurE’s wonderful remix of Better Than Ever (#26), some more feels from the Out On My Own remix (#29), the original Derpy-centered Surf Rock track Surfin’ Derp (#30), the blissful piano melodies from Tree of Harmony (#32), the heartfelt realtalk combined with quality instrumental in Waifu Blues (#33), the mighty rock spirit from Eclipses (#48), or the massive party track The Club Pony Party Palace (#50) that I will feature as a solo post next. I guess the expression “Do not judge a book by its cover” works here, and you won’t be disappointed if you decide to go give the full album a proper listen (and if you would consider donating, note that all proceeds will go to charity). This music lover, for one, is blown away.
A Symphony Of Two – A Strange & Isolated Place, Part 2 (The Forest) | Orchestral
Continuing their Strange and Isolated series, we have a new song from A Symphony Of Two. Although I’m calling this ‘orchestral’, this piece also contains a lot of ambient elements, synths, and sound effects, which to be honest, add so much more to ambiance and the theme of this series.
Sonic Hooves – Calamitatis (feat. Kopyce & Lunar Wolf) | Orchestral
An epic orchestral piece now from the Sonic Hooves, who recently made a return to the brony music scene after a short hiatus. This piece is a little more energetic than the usual stuff from then, and is a collaboration with their friends Kopyce and Lunar Wolf.
Radiarc – Ex Nocte | Orchestral
Although I’m tagging this as orchestral, it seems to have some electronic elements and a very cinematic feel with a strong emphasis on the percussion. If you like Radiarc’s pieces surrounding the Luna / Nightmare Moon theme, then you’re bound to enjoy this too.
Zephysonas – Luna’s Future (Google Translate Parody Version) | Orchestral
Normally we wouldn’t post something like this, but after a day of intense LDB album posts, we thought perhaps a bit of comedic relief would be apt. Zephy finds out how Luna’s Future sounds when put back and forth through Google Translate several times, with… interesting results. Have this to finish off the day.
